How to correct registry errors without removing the Persistent files?http://knoppix.net/forum/threads/32433-How-to-correct-registry-errors-without-removing-the-Persistent-files?goto=newpost

I also relaxed with the positive fate of Knoppix and the forum. I was certain that the forum shall continue to do well and prosper because of the joining of a few new members who were very competent. More competent than I am :)

I use Knoppix Image 7.2.0 with LibreOffice version 4.0.3.3(Build Id. 400m0(Build:3)) I use this persistently, with an entire hard drive and not an raiserfs filesystem within the partitionn.

I have added a few packages over time to enhance functionality and customisation. I don't need to change this version as this version is perfect for me. I know if I remove the persistent files in the HDD and reboot the Knoppix fresh, the problems will go away.

Unfortunately, so will my system-wide settings.

Of late, I get this registry error when I click to open LibreOffice.

When I read and click Okay, it closes.

The problem is that everything came with the knoppix ISO image and there is no additional Installation CD.

Quote:

The program cannot be started.
The service manager is not available.
("spurious end tag in file:///home/knoppix/.config/libreoffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/registry/com.sun.star.comp.deployment.component.PackageRegi stryBackend/common_.rdb")
Start setup application to repair the installation from CD, or the folder containing the installation packages.

I have tried with renaming the common_.rdb file. I also tried copying the said file from my desktop to my laptop, but then the application doesn't start at all.

What else to do?

Shall I replace the Knoppix Image extracted from the ISO and copied to the HDD? Is it necessary? The entire system is doing fine!

Can I happily update kernel 3.3.7 to kernel 4.7.9, and if I do, will the rest of
my system carry on the same as before?

The reason I want to update the kernel is because I've bought a new Seagate 2Tb
usb hdd, and it won't work on my present system (it works fine in Windows 7).
My testing, failed fixes, and Internet trawling leads me to the conclusion that the kernel
probably contains a bug that is preventing the drive from working.

The reason I want to update specifically to kernel 4.7.9 is because the Seagate
drive works OK with Live Knoppix 7.7 on usb memory stick, which has kernel
4.7.9.

My humble questions:

Please could you tell me what steps I carry out in order to update to kernel 4.7.9.
I'm out of my depth here, so could you spell out each step please.

Where do I get kernel 4.7.9 from?

Do I need to backup first?

Also, how do I revert to kernel 3.3.7 if I need to?

I was working with a flash install of knoppix and it seems really slow, much slower than I would expect.

so I run a command like dpkg on knoppix running without any persistent image (just using the ram of the system) and it goes instantly.
